Making an element in HTML that must be clicked for less than a set time to activate?
I want to make a linked element on a webpage, such as an image, box, button or cell that when clicked, will do nothing if it was not a single "click", for less than 500ms or so, such as if the user holds down the link, then nothing will happen.
Thanks for the help, I assume that JQuery or JavaScript will be used in the solution, but I can't find one on Google, and don't really know what to search for.
1 AnswerProgramming & Design9 years agoShould Australia Build Nuclear Power Plants?
Australia seems to be the perfect location for Nuclear Power: Lots of land to place plants on (far from civilization) in the event of the unlikely, lots of uranium to use (so we don't have to import it), and the fact that the demand for power will rise immensely worldwide over the next decade.
Can anyone expand on the positives, add positives, provide negatives (not necessarily dangers), and give their viewpoint on the nuclear situation?
3 AnswersPhysics10 years agoHow to solve this Factorial Equation?
How might I go about solving this factorial equation?
(n+2) ! = 132 n !
I suspect the 132 will be converted into 12! / 10! (or 12*11)
I also know that the answer is that n = 10 (but you're not meant to know that, it's just for checking)
3 AnswersHomework Help1 decade agoBatch file help - Errorlevels?
I have a batch file that opens programs depending on the number i press. But if i press a key other than the ones I've set it just goes haywire and opens random programs.
I hear that I need some sort of errorlevel to prevent this from happening, one that will say:
"hey, that's not a valid number, so try again"
but will stay silent if all is okay.
Thanks!

2 AnswersTheater & Acting1 decade agoSteam won't let me download new games to my new hard drive?
Here's what happened:
I ran out of space on my old hard drive, so I got a new one.
I installed it and yes, everything is working, but now steam refuses to let me change the location of my downloaded files.
I just need to know if there is an option or something I can change to make my new files end up in my D drive instead of my C drive.
Thanks

I need to know how to make a batch file that will tell me:

3 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoWhat is the Best DotA Character?
I would like to know which 3 or 4 characters are the best at doing things. E.g. A player killer, a creep killer, a tower killer and friendly support unit.
It's okay if you just want to put one character down for no reason other than you like them.
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoWhen i open my ds lite to a angle smaller than 135 degres, the top screen gos pixly and stops working.WAT 2 DO?
as i said above, the to screen of my ds lite completely freezes when at an angle smaller than 135 degrees. The picture last shown on the top screen slowly fades into red or yellow or heaps of rainbow lines. This all fixes when it goes back to one of the two clicks ( one at 180 degrees and another at about 140 degrees). This happens on all three of my games and is really annoying.
Can i fix this myself, get it repaired at a store or should i just use the warranty that will run out in about 10 days?
